IYHO: What did you watch this weekend?


Andy Samberg and Fred Armisen

It seemed like there was a heckuva lot of gay TV on this weekend (even Friday's episode of The Soup was 100% More Gay than usual), so I thought I'd kick off the week with an open thread to see what folks liked and didn't like.

Did you check out the de-gayed Inaugural concert? Or maybe the season premieres of United States of Tara, Big Love, or The L Word? The continuing adventures of our peeps on Desperate Housewives and Brothers & Sisters? And let's not even get started on how SNL shit the bed in the follow-up to Neil Patrick Harris's appearance ...

After the jump, I'll start the conversation on a few of the shows I caught, but this one's all about you. Judge freely!

Matt Ross (Alby from Big Love)
 

United States of Tara: Diggin' it. Looking forward to meeting Alice (the as-yet-unseen "alter") and seeing what happens with Marshall, whose crush on a classmate will apparently play a central role in the upcoming season.

Big Love: Oh my. I'll admit I haven't really given this show much of a chance thus far but I think I'm sold. Seriously, is there a more immersive and utterly creepy universe on television than the one that these characters inhabit? I'm loving that Matt Ross (Alby) is still having issues in men's restrooms (anyone remember his hilarious scene in American Psycho?).

Saturday Night Live: No bad gay jokes this week that I can remember, but good heavens what a stinker! The highlight sketch was a police procedural written by a fourth-grade Spanish class, which is oddly appropriate given that 10-year-olds apparently wrote the rest of the show as well. And the "bromance" digital short? Too little too late, guys. Have you turned on a TV lately?

So enough about me. What'd you think?
